Still stuck at the point where the windows box can only find the linux
box by its ip address , ie .44.131.90.129, not by either the netbios
name or netbios alias.
When the linux box is found a login is required and no matter what is
entered no access is given.



here are the logs

Futhermore linnieghbourhood no longer shows any shares on this box

my smb.conf file is now looking like this

# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = MDKGROUP
        netbios name = FIREWALL
        netbios aliases = firewall
        server string = Samba Server %v
        interfaces = eth0
        security = SHARE
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        root directory = /home/richard
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        max log size = 50
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
        printcap name = cups
        os level = 99
        dns proxy = No
        wins support = Yes
        printer admin = @adm
        hosts allow = 44.131.90.129  44.131.90.149   127.0.0.1
        printing = cups
        domain master = yes
        prefered master = yes
[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        read only = No
        browseable = No
                                                                                       
                                
[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        create mask = 0700
        guest ok = Yes
        printable = Yes
        print command = lpr-cups -P %p -o raw %s -r   # using clientside
printer drivers.
        browseable = No

This is why I did suggest to take this off line before someone got a bit
sick of this, I expect to get flamed before long for not getting this
sorted..

TIA 
Richard
